Compared to Zhang Chulan being able to directly see the Nascent Soul, Wu Ye's bit of spiritual light seems insignificant, but in essence, there's no difference. And because Wu Ye can only see a bit of spiritual light, he doesn't need to be passive like Zhang Chulan; instead, he can use that bit of spiritual light to enhance his own thinking.
This means that in the future, when Wu Ye encounters problems difficult to understand, he'll be able to grasp them more easily.
A "study hack," perhaps.
Regarding his disciple, Sun Wukong is quite considerate. He wouldn't force premature growth, allowing him to enrich himself and find his suitable developmental path, which is what a good teacher should do.

"I accidentally encountered Zhen Youmei in the hallway and chatted for a bit." Wu Ye didn't mention meeting Sun Wukong, his mentor, but instead used Zhen Youmei as an excuse.
